David Harbour claimed his first Emmy Award at the Creative Arts Emmys ceremony, earning the Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie honor for his role as Floyd Smernitch in HBO Max’s “DTF: St. Louis.” The achievement marks a significant milestone for the actor, who had previously received nominations in 2017 and 2018 for his work on “Stranger Things.”
During his acceptance speech, Harbour expressed gratitude for the show’s reception and praised the writing of creator Steve Conrad. He also highlighted the broader success of the series, noting that the entire cast and crew had been recognized with nominations. Additionally, Harbour holds an executive producer credit on the project, positioning him to potentially earn another accolade as the show remains in contention for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series at the upcoming Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony.
In backstage remarks, Harbour reflected on his career trajectory and the distinction between his earlier television success and his current role. He emphasized his continued passion for actively seeking out collaborators and projects that align with his artistic interests. The HBO Max series, which debuted in March, has accumulated 13 Emmy nominations this season across multiple categories, demonstrating strong industry recognition for its performances, direction, and casting.
